Life is an abstract concept, like time. Life is really just 6 billion perspectives fighting for breathing room, and what each individual witnesses of this is really what makes up their perception of what life is. Since life isn't really a definable concept in those terms, meaning lies solely in the hands of the individual, or, life is what you make it. So a better question might be, "Are you satisfied with yourself?" If you're not, don't blame life, it's not really there. But yes, I'm satisfied with myself.

In general, yes, but it took me a long time and a lot of difficult lessons to get here. I had to realize that I could not depend on other people to make me happy, I learned that I am what I am and it was not healthy to compare myself to other people, I learned that it is so important to like your chosen profession as in the end it is not the money that brings joy it is the work, I learned that having a relationship with God is vital, I learned that life moves too fast and I needed to slow down to enjoy the gifts that God gave me. So for the most part, I am satisfied with life. Sometimes I get frustrated and overwhelmed, some days are not good days, but the bad days are going to happen no matter what.

yes. I've had a very good life. Sure, there have been some bad spots, but on the whole, I'm very satisfied with the way I lived mine.

I think I'm gonna say no to that because I always want a better life, the same as a lot of other people, I think that it is difficult to be satisfied with your life. I'm always trying to improve my life but I think perhaps fate has other ideas for myself as something out of my control always drags my goals away again. I would just sit back and be content with my life now instead of wishing to improve it but as it's pretty crap that is kinda difficult.
And I know, that would've been quicker for me to have just said/written NO.

Satisfaction will not happen to many of us as we often look forward to better things each day. Today you may be contented with what you have achieved, tomorrow you want more. The day when I will be truly satisfied is when I sit beside Jesus in the heavens.

Satisfied? Far from it. Not even content. My life lacks substance right now.

Yes. I think I have a nice life, and am greatful for the things I have. Although I would like to have more time for a relationship.

well i'm happy with my life but i'm not satsified bc i feel like i can keep improving myself by learning new things and helping other people. if you were ever "really" satisfied with your life why keep going? you need to have goals to hit or you're just living life with no meaning
